Replying To Matchwatcher: "In fairness to the man, maybe he wants to be challenged.But not with the former Monaghan manager. We don't need that and all that goes with it.It's a bit like the boxer needing to take on the hard fights to prove his reputation. Everyone keeps saying that he's landed a handy number and anyone could manage Scotstown. He probably needs to get out of his comfort zone, take something else on and deliver success if he is to be regarded as a top manager. It's actually not his fault that the situation in Monaghan has made managing Scotstown arguably the easiest club job in the country. Success with Monaghan(Ulster title and deep into All Ireland) would show that he's deserving of a lot more respect and credibility than he currently gets. Scotstown Donaghmoyne Drumhowan Junior and Senior Championship winners without question. Donaghmoyne destroyed Aughnamullen but maybe Ballybay could challenge them. Drumhowan destroyed Currin. Scotstown v Corduff, no comment. Most predictable Senior and Junior championships ever." If he was to leave Scotstown for Monaghan Banty wouldn't be in his thoughts. He goes and takes the successful backroom team he has and knows what works.

Replying To benbulbingael: "It's now midday Monday and still none the wiser as to details for weekends fixtures - nothing on website not even the standard placeholders. Appears the only way to get information is have a contact on the ccc. Looks like the master calendar has been ignored for senior relegation schedule too.
The 2 streamed games were very poor affairs, Tourlestranne pulled away in second half against Tubber and Easkey got a narrow win. So no real surprises in senior other than maybe the quality of the 2 streamed games. Mary's v Coolera the pick of the quarter finals - perhaps they will be making a trip west to play it!
In intermediate - the real standout is Enniscrone finishing bottom of their group 11 months after being narrowly defeated in the final. They face a tough test in Geevagh too and could well end up in the relegation final. Farnans squeeze through but wouldn't expect them to progress any further while Castleconnor just about did enough - maybe their interference in official appointments paid off in the end. They have a very good chance of making a semi final now.
Onto junior and it really is Owenmore Gaels to lose. Good to see all first team make the knockout stages but probably a Owenmore Gaels v Molaise final based on form to date." Mayo did their draw last night at 7pm and could have their fixtures out by 9. After good work from the ccc last year its like this year they've gone into reverse.

Replying To WanPintWin: "Kilkenny had plenty All Ireland winners who played for Junior clubs. They didn't have a bloated 24 team senior competition though. We're seeing proper cut and thrust now with 16 and 16 in Senior and Intermediate. Whoever goes down will come back up if they're good enough." The Galway Premier Junior is a joke..whoever gets relegated from Intermediate will go straight back up the following year and so on ect ect. There are Clubs in Premier Junior who will never see the light of Intermediate again just stuck in Junior forever. There should be relegation from Premier Junior to Reeves Cup and promotion from Reeves Cup to Premier Junior.. If a Clubs 2nd team are good enough to win their way up the grades let them play Intermediate. The majority of Reeves Cup teams would beat the majority of those Premier Junior teams.

We've been over this before. The clubs voted quite strongly in favour of the new format. We had a ridiculous situation under the old format of senior players from big clubs playing the first few rounds of the Junior championship. It was very unfair to whoever met them in the first few games. We'll see how it goes over the next few years. I wouldn't be so sure it will pan out as you say, based on your other predictions.

Replying To GreenandRed: "I'm talking about Hoganstand forum. Too many AKAs." do you know any web discussion forum that does require a person to put their own ID up to post? Its hard enough to get people to post without having that and why would people want that to be in place?

Was at the Corofin v Caherlistrane game and very entertaining in tough conditions. Man of the match was Rory Fahey for Corofin and well deserved.Hard to understand how he wasnt part of Galway minor panel this year.Couldnt be 12 better forwards in the county Not far behind was Caherlistrane midfielder.

Takeaways from this weekend - Cremartin and Corduff would be the 5th/6th best team in intermediate this year. - How on earth did we let Conor Boyle walk away from the county panel two years ago. As good a man marking job as anyone has done on Mooney. - Give Matthew Carolan a full McKenna cup and some league football next year. - Magheracloone have been well and truly found out. All well and good doing well in the league whenever Latton and Castleblayney are the only other teams that care about it. New management needed, badly. - The 5 Village Amalgamation are about to win the easiest county medal that any of the 5 villages have ever seen. - Love a south Monaghan derby. - Transfers have killed our Senior club scene. Carrick would be an irrelevant cause without the Louth man. It just doesn't feel right. Although, Inniskeen can't really say much about it after Durnin.

Replying To katser: "Under the current rules there is no promotion to Premier Junior, so the highest grade a Club can go is Reeves Cup. From Junior F,E,D,C,B,A and then Reeves Cup. Madness!!" No promotion for second teams. Tuam would be promoted to premier junior if they won Junior A.
